Velvet Goldmine - The Whole Shebang Lyrics

Darling, you can't live your life
Singing songs in exile
You were born for stardom's crown
And not for self-denial
So don't you close the door on fate
When she comes to call
And tell her that you'll join her there
At the masquerader's ball
Funny how some people never love at all

We'll take the whole shebang
All or nothing, anything
Ecstasy's the birthright of our gang
We'll take the whole shebang
Free your heart of guilt and shame
Come and claim what's yours
The whole shebang

Nothing on this earth could hold you prisoner, my dear
Except for contemplations evil brother, love is feared
But love is extra-terrestrial
And love falls from the stars
Like Maxwell Demon's silver disk
Into this world of ours
Funny how we keep on loving, true love power

We'll take the whole shebang
All or nothing, anything
Ecstasy's the birthright of our gang
We'll take the whole shebang
Free your heart of guilt and shame
Come and claim what's yours
The whole shebang

Kick up your heels and paint your face
Wave goodbye to yesteryear
We can swing in outer space
Or from the chandeliers
Though sometimes it breaks my heart, I hide my tears

We'll take the whole shebang
All or nothing, anything
Ecstasy's the birthright of our gang
We'll take the whole shebang
Free your heart of guilt and shame
Come and claim what's yours
The whole shebang
